Understanding the Customer record

Guide to navigating the Customer Record: tabs, details, managing contacts, assets, branches, and customisation.

The Customer Record is the central location where all information related to a customer is stored and managed. From contact details and communication history to ongoing jobs and associated assets, this record gives users a comprehensive view of the customer’s interactions and services, enabling efficient and streamlined customer management.

Once you’ve created a customer, you will be taken to their details page. While the appearance of this page may vary depending on the customer type, the overall structure and purpose remain the same. The customer record contains several tabs, with the default tab being All Works, which includes both Ongoing Works and History.


➡️ Customers Tab > Select the desired customer type from the left side of the page.

For the full step-by-step form, see Customer record — Add & manage a customer.

Left Side Panel

The left side of the page contains various sections, replacing the old Property tab. The information displayed in each section can be customized, along with the order in which they appear, with the exception of Customer Details and Who’s Viewing, which are locked in place. To edit these fields, scroll to the bottom of the page and click Edit Views. Customisation is done at a user level, allowing each user to have a personalised view for all customer and work address types.

  • Mini-map: Displays the customer's address for quick reference.

  • Icons:

    • Customer Status Icon: Shows the current status of the customer (e.g., active, inactive).

    • Debt and Debt Age Icon: Displays any outstanding debt and its age, allowing easy tracking of overdue payments.

    • Account Credit Icon: Indicates if the customer has any account credit.

  • Customer Details: Contains the customer’s contact details and address.

    • Clicking the phone number will initiate a call through an integrated phone system (if set up), and clicking the email opens the email builder directly.

  • Service Reminders: Now located here after the reminders tab was removed.

  • Other Details: Always visible for quick access of the details.

  • Technical References: Always visible and accessible for editing, making key details immediately available.

  • Contracts: Displays the contract details associated with the customer.

  • Service Plan: Displays the service plan assigned to a customer.

  • Edit views: This side panel is customisable at the user level, allowing users to change the order of blocks and choose which details to display. Any changes are saved automatically for each user.
